Attendance of Growth Monitoring and Promotion by Mothers with Children Aged 24-59 Months in Mulamba Catchment Area of Kaoma District Zambia

Author(s) Helen Mapenzi Mbula, Dr. Maureen M. Masumo
Country Zambia
Abstract Growth monitoring (GM) is the process of following the growth rate of a child (0-59 months) in comparison to a standard by periodic anthropometric measurements in order to assess growth adequacy and identify faltering at early stages [15]. Indicators reveal that the attendance of children for growth monitoring and promotion between 24-59 months is low in Zambia. This low coverage has been noted in Kaoma where according to the health facility’s annual 2022 Health Management Information System (HMIS) reports [10], Mulamba Urban Clinic in particular recorded the coverage on attendances of Growth Monitoring and Promotion (GMP) by mothers and care takers below 15%. This is against the standard of 80% coverage expected. The aim of this study was to investigate factors influencing attendance of Growth Monitoring and Promotion by caretakers with children aged 24-59 months in Mulamba catchment area-Kaoma District- Zambia.
